Abstract

Solutions of emeraldine base(EB) in DMPU have been successfully spun into fibers and characterized according to their morphology, mechanical and electrical properties. This study presents results for as-spun (undrawn) fibers. The viscoelastic behavior of EB spin solutions have been investigated with dynamic measurements of the complex moduli, first normal stress coefficient, and complex viscosity. A knowledge of the viscoelastic behavior of emeraldine base solutions is crucial for effective processing into fibers and films.
